Amgen gives back to the hungry in their community

The Global Commercial Development Team Members of Amgen spent part of their day, August 22^nd  learning more about  FOOD Share on our “Taste of FOOD Share Tour” and then went to work assisting with our rescued food operation, sorting and packaging food for the hungry in Ventura County.

 This was a wonderful, fun and enthusiastic group who all mentioned how amazed they were at the size and complexity of our organization and its impact on the community. Thanks for visiting with us Amgen, we appreciate you and so value our partnership working together building a stronger community.   

Here is what some of the team members had to say, "It was wonderful! We truly enjoyed our visit.  We were proud of the value Amgen added to an amazing organization.  We were very impressed at the amount of work and organization that goes into your production as well as the giveback to the community."
